Help to understand the Irish planning system and its goings on

This blog is designed, written and produced to provide anyone with an interest in planning or who needs to understand parts of the planning system with this information, and also to provide an up to date log of Irish planning stories which deserve national attention.

In addition, from time to time interesting pieces of planning related material will be posted. If anyone wants anything included just email me and I'll post it (if it is not too rude ...).

Students of planning will find parts of this site especially useful as course notes.

Those who need help with a planning issue or matter can contact me at 087-2615871 or email brendan@buckplanning.ie
